We stayed here while visiting our daughter at college. We had all of the necessities and few extras! Very clean and very comfy bed! The one downside to the property is although it is pet friendly it is little bit of a walk to grass for pet potty but still doable. There is traffic noise but again part of the downtown vibe. We would stay again.

We were in town for a family wedding just outside of Paris and this was a perfect spot to stay for the weekend….close to everything we needed, even had a gym nearby for drop-in workouts….sweet little apartment a la “Victorian”, very spacious, very comfortable King bed - only downside was the sound of late night vehicles on the Main Street below.

Paris, KY Stay in Town

We had a great time in Paris and neighboring area. This location and venue were a great place to stay. Clean, comfortable and charming. If you are in Paris, KY we recommend. Be sure to make it to the Farmer's Market on Saturday just around the corner and to Lil's for quiche or Tomato Pie

About the host

Hosted by RON PERRY

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Ronnie Perry. I and my wife, Erin are Kentucky natives. We have a love for Paris specifically--both the history and the people and truly love living here. I have been a broker/realtor since the 90's and love history, so the makeover on the post-civil war building apartment was a natural. We have put lots of love and care into this place and are so happy to be able to share it with you!!

Why they chose this property

This was a vision for both of us. We love Paris and wanted to be a part of the downtown renovation and rebirth that has been happening.
With streets named after famous horses and horseshoes buried in the sidewalks on Main (Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, move over!) it was irresistible when the old Fee grocery store came up for sale in 2013. Historic photos grace the interior and hallway of the apartment and the old Fee's Grocery sign that a was originally painted on the side of the building many years ago has been refurbished! We love being part of the downtown scene and contributing to the future of our beautiful area.

What makes this property unique

This apartment is ideal for a romantic get away or mixing pleasure with business in the heart of horse country. With easy access to Lexington, Ky (only 12 miles away down one of the most beautiful stretches of highway anywhere---passing through horse farm after horse farm) or the Kentucky Horse Park---it lets you live in the charm of the small city while affording easy access to big city shopping, performances at Rupp Arena, Keenland Race Track, the Red Mile and more. Of course with 54 working horse farms in Paris and Bourbon County, the heart of the Bluegrass is just outside your door!
